The classes are intended to keep creative subjects alive during COVID-19
Goldie, Ghetts, Tiffany Calver, Jaguar, Danny Howard, WhyJay and more are among those offering free music lessons with the in-school music scheme FutureDJs to inspire more children to get into music.
The programme launches this weekend (Saturday August 29) and will be held via Virtuoso, a purpose-built virtual music classroom. The lessons given will span everything from DJing, production and MCing.

As children start to go back to school, creative subjects like music are being threatened due to logistical difficulties with social distancing and sterilising the equipment used. To combat this, FutureDJs is offering free weekly production and DJing classes to students.
FutureDJs is currently the only DJ education programme that is accredited by London College of Music and has been working in schools since 2015 to deliver an interactive and engaging programme that opens children up to the skills and knowledge of DJing and music production.
